I just purchased the 1973 plugin this morning. Works great but…
I have installed the key file in my Vst folder, removed the .txt at the end of the file and it STILL tells me it’s an evaluation copy.
What am I doing wrong?
I use SONAR 64 bits and downloaded the proper version of the plugin.
If you look at the folder in Windows Explorer, does the file type column for the key file say “Text Document”? If so, Explorer may be hiding the file extension for known file types, and the file really DOES have a .txt extension.
Try cd-ing to that directory from a command prompt and do a ‘dir 472*.*’ if it does end in .txt, you can rename it from there.
Alternately, you can change Windows Explorer’s options to not hide file extensions of known file types…(Folder and Search Options > View > Hide extensions for known file types <— Uncheck this.)
Two things are certain…the key file IS valid and it IS an all-hosts license. There is no reason why it shouldn’t work if it’s in the same directory as the plugin being loaded, and if the key file is properly named.
